Fried Okra


For those who don't know of the Southern/Midwestern delicacy of fried okra, let me enlighten you. I was so excited when I saw a bag of okra in the freezer section and I just had to get it! I was very surprised finding such a country cookin' treat in the middle of the desert. When my great-grandfather came to visit us when I was little, we always went to Po' Folks and got fried okra. Eating it always reminds me of him and home and all sorts of good things to eat that no one seems to know of outside of the mid-west. Like noodles at Thanksgiving. Here's a sample of okra, next to S's baked potato.
